I love 'em... Have two sets for the Z06, one set for the Pace Car and even a set on the Z-3 Roadster... Great price, smooth ride.. The tread pattern changed last year...

RA-1 rocks. I don't have them on the vette (I will get them next), but had them on my Seven. Great tires.

As others have said, great tires. Bought a set of T1-S for our 03 Z06 so it would stay on the road in heavy rain. They work as advertised. Now that Goodyear has the D3 tread pattern I'd look at those, but they probably cost more than the Toyos. Either way you won't be sorry.
